Meh ... you could, but what the function really needs is the name.
Getting from regnamespace (which is an OID) to the name would incur
an extra syscache lookup. Admittedly, if it removes the need for
the calling query to join to pg_namespace at all, you'd probably
come out about even --- the net effect would be about like a
hashjoin to pg_namespace, I think, since the syscache would act
like the inner hashtable of a hashjoin.
